"Sun Zhiqing also said that prices would go up. Fortunately, we received a lot of food last year. If we save some, we'll have enough to last until the end of the year. As for next year's affairs, we'll plan for it next year."
After saying that, he took Song Tanglan's hand and looked at the uncles who were busy working in the fields not far away.
They are now testing the underground ice to see if it has completely thawed, so as to avoid freezing the seeds, otherwise they will suffer a huge loss.
"The year has just begun, and you're already worrying about what's going to happen next?"
Song Tanglan found it very funny to see her sad face.
Thinking about the last time grain was distributed, I discussed with my second sister and others that we would go to the town to buy grain when the time comes, but it has not been done yet.
There was no way, it was snowing all the time and they couldn’t go out!!
Song Tanglan had made up her mind. Tomorrow she would go to the commune and secretly ask Xu Qi to order some more food. She should be prepared so that she would not really go hungry.
But she didn't know that her second brother-in-law had already made plans. He told him about this matter on the day Xu Qi came to deliver the things. There was no need to worry about it. It was just that Cheng Fangyuan forgot to tell her, so she didn't know.
Song Tanglan not only gave instructions to his own family members, but also reminded several friends to prepare more food.
But Su Tao didn't react at that time. Unexpectedly, not long after that, she started to plan for the future.
"You have to make plans for yourself. You can't go to work on an empty stomach!!"
………
The next day, the two arrived at the village entrance early. Today, Cheng Fangyuan reminded them to arrive early, fearing that there would be no seats. The two were very obedient and arrived early.
But unexpectedly, they left home at dawn, but when they arrived, there were already many people waiting at the entrance of the village. As soon as the tractor came, everyone hurriedly got on the car, and soon the tractor was full of people.
Su Tao was squeezed from both sides and couldn't help but complain to Song Tanglan quietly. "There are so many people going to the commune today, more than every time before."
"That's normal. Who wouldn't want to go out for some fresh air after being cooped up at home for so long? Besides, after staying at home for so long, I've almost used up all my daily necessities, so of course I have to go out and buy some."
Song Tanglan had been hearing a lot these past few days from the team members complaining about missing things at home, saying they had no time to buy more, and that the family next door had even come to borrow matches and salt.
He said he would return it the next time he went to the commune to buy something. Song Tangcheng didn't think about it and agreed directly. After all, they were neighbors and from the same brigade. Not everyone was as shameless as Wang Po and would not return borrowed things.
So Song Tangcheng was very generous when borrowing!
However, this also shows that the heavy snow came unexpectedly, and many people were unable to prepare enough supplies for the New Year.
The preparations were also focused on keeping warm, and I forgot some things that I would need for daily life.
Now that the snowstorm is over and the timing is so right, of course everyone has to go and sell what they are short of.
Song Tanglan was happier to see such a lively atmosphere. Ever since it started snowing, she thought about the plot in the original book and was always afraid that something bad would happen.
Especially after the wolves came down the mountain, she was worried almost every day, fearing that she, the butterfly, would cause a butterfly effect.
The truth is that ever since she made the change, the plot of the original book has become a mess. Not only are the male and female protagonists of the original book not together, but even her backups don't pay much attention to Yang Chunyan.
Yang Chunyan has been having a miserable time recently. I heard that she is still lying in bed!
This completely different plot still made her a little worried.
As for why she knew so much even though they were not in the same brigade, it was all thanks to Su Tao, who loved to gossip. There was no gossip about the nearby brigades that she didn't know.
As for where Su Tao found out, she had no idea.
The difficult snowstorm has been overcome, but she has no idea whether there will be any other unexpected changes in the future. Anyway, she has spent the whole winter quite comfortably.
Life is very comfortable. She is not affected by the chaos of others. She is happy to read gossip anyway.
Especially when there was not enough firewood, several families made a big fuss. Several families braved the snow and sent their children to the mountains to find firewood. In the end, several people came back injured, and one person almost froze to death.
Seeing that this method didn't work, they had no choice but to shamelessly go to the captain's house to borrow money.
Captain Cheng would see villagers braving the snow to come to his house to borrow firewood and food almost every once in a while.
However, Captain Cheng did not make things difficult for them. He knew that they were really desperate, so he lent them the team's stored food and firewood.
So that they all survived safely.
Every year before winter, the brigade not only stores grain, but also asks young men to go up the mountain to chop firewood and send it to the warehouse. These are reserved for use when slaughtering pigs. Every year, extra firewood is prepared and kept as a backup.
So gradually a lot of firewood was stored in the warehouse.
…
"Lanlan, what are you going to buy this time? I wonder if the supply and marketing cooperative is crowded at this time? What if there are too many people and we can't squeeze in?"
Su Tao started to worry when she talked about this. Looking at the people on the tractor who were being squeezed here and there, she began to feel a little insecure.
"I'll just buy some daily necessities, and my second sister will buy the rest at the supply and marketing cooperative."
After saying that, he remembered that Song Tangcheng had to go to work at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative today. He wondered if his second sister would be uncomfortable after not going to work for such a long time.
Mumu at home will be away from his closest person. He will not be used to it and will cry loudly. If Aunt Li can't comfort him, he will cry so pitifully.
Su Tao thought about it and nodded. In fact, if there was no tractor going to the commune today.
